Hope You Have Had a Great Week!

     We send our love from El Salvador. We have had a quiet week here, no adventures to tell about. We were blessed to have two groups from Honduras visit us at the Temple so we had a couple of busy days and of course Saturday was bustling as usual. The rains in the early evenings stop a lot from coming to the Temple but we have not had any rain for two days now so we might be done  with the rainy season.

     We have been warned that this week the public buses will most likely go on strike so we could have a real quiet week. Many of our workers and patrons at the Temple do not own cars and ride the public buses, even on Sunday to get to church. As we were out and about today, we didn't see any buses so we think the strike is on. Let you know how it goes next week.

     Lon got to go golfing last Monday with a young man from our ward.  He got to play at the second course that is here in El Salvador. This one is just a couple of miles from us. They went on a Monday so there was no amenities offered so it was affordable. All he had to pay for was the caddie. Lon says that he set a record score for his life. His caddie won't bend on the score at all and he got a 62. The only problem was that it was for 9 holes!! The greens were soggy from the rain but extremely fast. It had very narrow fairways and the sandtraps were like brick because of the rains. He can't think of any other excuses and looks forward to playing it again to redeem himself. It is tough when you score a 10, 10, and a 9 on three holes. The only bright spot is that he won the match as his partner shot a 67. He had fun being on the course again.

     We are on the AM Shift this week so we will be trying to get to bed early and will look forward to a nap in the afternoon when we don't sleep well at night. We hope you all are well and enjoying life. We thank you for your prayers in our behalf and you are in our every day. We love you all, Lon and Nancy, Dad and Mom, Grandpa and Grandma
